Obama’s “gotcha” effect on America

Besides listening to the national anthem with his hands over his genitals instead of his heart, Barack Hussein Obama has adulterated the presidential seal so as to make it into one of his campaign logos, declared that the American flag is “a symbol of oppression,” and, as a finishing stroke, removed the stars and stripes from the tail of his campaign jet, replacing them with the “O” that stands for. . . himself.

More than plain and simple contempt, this attitude denotes a conscious effort at destroying the national symbols. This effort, in turn, does not invite symbolic interpretation: its meaning is self-evident. It gives electoral expression to the cultural war that has been waged against the United States, from within and from abroad, ever since the sixties: the point is to erect, upon the rubble of patriotism and sovereignty, a new system of loyalties, based on the alliance between every anti-American, anti-Western, and anti-Christian hatred and the billionaire interests engrossed with the implementation of the world government. The clearest token of such an alliance are the candidate’s sources of funding: radical and pro-terrorist groups, on the one hand, and the globalist megafortunes plus the mainstream media in full, on the other. Hence the vigor of his campaign, which has three or four times as much money as his opponent’s and-without any exaggeration-gets twenty or thirty times as much media coverage.

With this backup, he presumes not only to defy every convention but also to trample on the most elementary of legal requirements: after withholding for months his birth certificate, he at last produced a manifestly spurious one (see http://web.israelinsider.com/Articles/Politics/12993.htm). The original document, which is still missing, is necessary to clear up an essential question: Is Obama an American citizen, or is he an alien, and therefore ineligible? The concealment and the subsequent fraud speak in favor of the latter hypothesis, but the steadfast enthusiasm of Obamaniacs, contrasting with their absolute lack of interest in clarifying this question, shows that they would rather demolish the American electoral system in a single blow than allow Republicans to stay in power: the new system of loyalties is already in force, placing the partisan ambitions of the Left over national integrity.

With the same self-confident insolence, Obama’s government plans run flagrantly counter to the will of the majority, without the candidate’s having to fear the loss of even a single vote. The nation wants gas prices down; Obama promises to send them up, by maintaining the ban on new oil drilling. America wants to see illegal immigrants gone; Obama promises not only to grant them amnesty but also to give them taxpayer-funded health care. The nation wants fewer taxes; Obama promises to create a few more. If millions of American citizens who think and want the opposite of what Obama does have sworn to vote for Obama for president, it is not on account of what he promises, but in spite of his promising them hell itself. The attraction of the hypnotic image is stronger than the cost-benefit analysis.

Obama’s campaign is a work of precision psychological engineering, planned not to win over voters through rational persuasion, but to weaken, shock, and stupefy them to the point of making them accept any loss, any humiliation, any defeat, just so as not to contradict the assumed moral obligation to elect him, it being of little importance whether he actually is an enemy in disguise. Here is what Obama is demanding-and obtaining-from voters: that they sacrifice everything to a fetish, and that they do so to some extent consciously, sharing therefore all blame for the operation and being rendered, in advance, unable to fight against it once it has been accomplished.

We have already seen this operation carried in Brazil, on the basis of the stereotypical image of the “worker president,” against whose crimes and perfidies no one can raise an audible voice any more, for everyone, coerced by psychological blackmail, became an accomplice in some way or another in the rite of sacrifice before the altar of the idol.
